8 Advantages of Choosing Online Dog Training

With the advent of the internet, dog training has gone online! Now, you can get in touch with a myriad of professional trainers as well as get advice or take whole online dog training courses. Traditional dog training classes certainly provide you with a wonderful opportunity for working with your dog, but if you are self-motivated, there might be a number of advantages to selecting a course for online dog training. Here are a few different advantages of online dog training over traditional training:

1. There are a lot of online dog training courses available. Most of them you are able to find reviews about from previous customers. These reviews help you to decide whether a program may be successful for you or not.

2. Videos: Many of the best online dog training courses now have video that accompany them as part of the package. These videos demonstrate each of the obedience skills to you, just like an instructor in a traditional class would.

3. Cost: Online dog training is often less expensive than enrolling in a traditional obedience class. Sometimes, there are even extra, supplemental videos or e-books as part of the deal.

4. You can take the classes whenever you want to! If you want to work with your dog in the middle of the night, you would be able to. Your schedule is entirely set by you.

5. Some online dog training courses have online chats, forums, or the ability to e-mail questions to a live trainer. This way, if you are unsure of something, you are able to verify the methods or problem solve.

6. When you work by yourself, you are able to focus solely on you and the dog. You have no other distractions to work with, and you don’t have to deal with anyone else’s dog either. Your dog can work in a more concentrated way too.

7. Does your dog have a behavioral issue that might make a traditional class difficult? Online dog training classes work very well for dogs that might be extremely stimulated by the presence of other dogs, are very shy or frightened in crowded situation, or a dog that might have different aggression issues that would be hard to manage in a traditional class.

8. Depending on the course, the online dog training course may include multiple options for teaching a particular skill. Also, there may be more skills included like trick training in the class. These are the eight main potential advantages to an online dog training course.

Overall, the online dog training courses might be able to offer a cost efficient and time conscious option to working with your dog. Remember to make sure to select a training program that has had a lot of customers purchase or participate in it. Also make sure to have thoroughly researched the program and read reviews to insure it will be a positive and beneficial experience for you and your dog.

Starting out in Dog Showing
01-Jun-06

If you think that you may wish to start showing your dog, the first thing that you will need to think about is training - for both you and your dog. There are many clubs which specialise in Ringcraft classes and can teach you how to prepare and present your dog so that it looks its best for the judge in the show ring.

It is important that you attend dog training classes before you start to exhibit your dog. The Good Citizen Dog Scheme is the UK's largest dog training programme and there are thousands of organisations that can help you and your dog learn the basics. The programme includes training for different stages of development starting at the Puppy Foundation course and then through to Bronze, Silver and Gold. Contact the Kennel Club to find your nearest club on 0844 463 3980 or email gcds@thekennelclub.org.uk.

However, it may be beneficial to attend a local dog show before starting classes so that you can get a general idea of what happens at a show and also to talk to other exhibitors. You may also be able to learn a little more about how your breed is shown to ‘its best advantage’ by speaking to the dog's breeder.

You can find out about up and coming shows through the Kennel Gazette (available from the Kennel Club). There are also two weekly newspapers called Dog World and Our Dogs, which carry adverts for shows and can be ordered through your local newsagent. These publications will give you a lot of useful information about the show scene and general information relating to dogs.

Ringcraft Classes
Ringcraft clubs are usually very sociable, where groups of like-minded people meet on a regular basis and get great enjoyment from training their dogs. The ideal Ringcraft club should have classes, for the beginner, and in particular the puppy before it goes into the show ring, through to classes for more experienced dogs and handlers in order to keep them in the peak of training.

A great deal of time and effort goes into presenting a dog for exhibition at a show and even getting your dog to perform in the ring is a lot harder than it looks. A dog that only wants to slouch in the corner, or ambles around the ring ungracefully will not impress the judge. It is important that you learn how to present your dog in the show ring to show off all its finer points.

This can be very difficult to achieve; the dog has got to want to show off for its owner or handler in the show ring and you must work hard together to build this rapport. The people who run Ringcraft clubs have a great deal of experience in the 'show scene' and will be able to show you all the techniques to get the best out of your dog.

Some Ringcraft clubs not only run training classes for your dogs, but competitions such as Matches and Companion Dog Shows so that members can see how they are progressing.

Ringcraft club classes can also be used as the basis of training you and your dog on how it should be handled and presented even if you have no thoughts of entering the 'show scene'. They are not just for people wanting to show their dogs but for everybody with a dog, and they will teach the basics such as:

Socialisation with people and other dogs
Training your dog to walk on a lead nicely without becoming distracted by people or other dogs.
Whilst a great deal of time and effort goes into presenting a dog for exhibition at a show it is, in the end, very rewarding.

To find Ringcraft classes in your local area please email Lauren Lowe or call 0844 463 3980 ext. 226.
